Hello darkness, my ol(d) friend

I've come to tal(k) with◡you again

Because◡a vision softly creeping

Left◡its seeds while◡I was sleeping

An(d) the vision tha(t)◡was planted◡in my brain

Still remains

Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams◡I walked◡alone

Narrow streets◡of cobble stone

'Neath the halo of◡a stree(t) lamp

I turne(d) my collar to the cold◡an(d) damp

When my eyes◡were stabbe(d) by the flash◡of◡a neon light

Tha(t) spli(t) the night

An(d) touche(d) the sound of silence

And◡in the nake(d) light◡I saw

Ten thousand(d) people, maybe more

People talking withou(t) speaking

People hearing withou(t) listening

People writing songs tha(t) voices never share

No one dare distur(b) the sound of silence

"Fools" said◡I, "You do no(t) know

Silence like◡a cancer grows”

Hear my words that◡I migh(t) teach◡you

Ta(k)e my arms that◡I migh(t) reach◡you

Bu(t) my words li(k)e silen(t) raindrops fell

And◡echoed◡in the wells of silence

An(d) the people bowed◡an(d) prayed to the neon go(d) they made

An(d) the sign flashed◡out◡its warning

In the words that◡i(t) was forming

An(d) the sign said:

"The words◡of the prophets◡are written◡on the subway walls

An(d) tenemen(t) halls

And◡whispered◡in the sounds of silence.
